Well you're doing basic console programming there. If you want a message box, you're gonna need to use the Win32 API. I don't know anything about it really, do some searching for Win32 API tutorials, or talk to SilentRage.

you'll have to include <windows.h> to get the win32api calls to work.. int MessageBox( HWND hWnd, // handle of owner window LPCTSTR lpText, // address of text in message box LPCTSTR lpCaption, // address of title of message box UINT uType // style of message box );use silentrage's example as a guide MB_OK is just a type of messagebox MB_ICONWARNING is another just get win32.hlp also known as windows 32 api refrenece

The wise make mistakes, the fools repeat them----------------------------------------When you have eliminated the impossible, that which remains, however improbable, must be the truth

MessageBox works only on windows (and windows emulators). windows comes with that function. "windows.h" tells the compiler you want to use windows specific functions. Without it the compiler wouldn't know what the heck a "MessageBox" function is. Each *.h file tells the compiler about new functions you can use.
